Chapter 20 Confession
Fighting poison with poison can not only cure many difficult and miscellaneous diseases, but also have the effect of suppressing those that are difficult for the imperial court to control, such as epidemic diseases.

The two were chatting happily, but at this moment, a guard hurried over from outside: "Master, Your Majesty summoned you."

When they came to the palace, the eunuch recommended for Mo Beiyu was not the emperor, but Concubine Shu.

It is very inappropriate for a foreign minister to enter the palace, Mo Beiyu frowned and saluted Concubine Shu.

"Don't get me wrong, Prime Minister Zuo. Two days ago, Princess Yongping fainted outside and left behind an ornament. This ornament was given to her by her grandfather. It is extremely precious. This time, Prime Minister Zuo was invited here just to ask .”

One must know that Concubine Shu Gui had gone to great lengths to get this opportunity from the emperor.

Ever since she knew how rebellious her daughter had said in front of the emperor, Concubine Shu Gui changed her previous style and cried with the emperor instead.

She accused her of failing to discipline her daughter well, making her fall in love with someone she shouldn't like, and this time she also hoped that her daughter would change her infatuation, so the emperor allowed her to call Mo Beiyu in.

After all, the emperor still loves Chu Yurou, and besides, the royal face must be preserved.

It's a pity that the mother and daughter he trusted had completely different ideas from hers.

Chu Yurou dressed neatly again, she sat in front of the flower tree, her frown and smile looked like the peach blossom fairy in the painting.

And Mo Beiyu's eyes were clearly untouched, as if he hadn't seen anything.

Concubine Shu sighed in her heart, it seemed that this man really wasn't tempted by her daughter at all.

She stepped back slightly to leave space for the two of them, then turned around and ordered the big palace maid to call the palace maid who was about to be released.

The maid's name was Ruyan, and she was originally a third-class maid sweeping the floor outside. After trying the incense pills for Concubine Shu, her status jumped to the top.

But for some reason, after only three or five days, she developed chest tightness, shortness of breath, and symptoms that were hard to express.

This time, following the order of Concubine Shu, he was already out of breath after walking a few steps.

"You will send this bowl of tea to the prime minister in a while. The left prime minister is an important minister in the court. You must wait on him well and don't leave him around."

Ruyan nodded apprehensively, but she was a little worried about her body, wondering if she could finish this matter.

Chu Yurou stood up, staring affectionately at the man in front of her.

"Brother Beiyu."

"Princess respects herself."

These four words were like a sharp blade that smashed the glass, shattering Chu Yurou's heart full of expectations.

She finally understood what Concubine Shu Gui meant.

"Don't you have any tenderness for me? Obviously we need to know each other earlier. "

Perhaps Chu Yurou's love for Mo Beiyu and jealousy for Chu Qinglan were just a little bit at first, but after this marriage, she was completely fascinated by this heroic man in front of her.

Before, she felt that Chu Qinglan was not good enough for Mo Beiyu, but now she didn't even want to think of Chu Qinglan's appearance.

"Princess Yongping, I made it clear to you that day that I have nothing to do with the princess, so there is no friendship."

"Even if there is, it's just a feeling of reverence for the royal family, not to mention that the minister will soon be the son-in-law of the eldest princess, and there should be no connection that should not exist."

The engagement is near.Mo Beiyu didn't want anyone to disturb him.

"Chen Xinyue, the eldest princess, also admires the eldest princess. Apart from this, there will be no one else. I only wish to have Lan'er as a wife. In this life, I have no other thoughts."

This sentence can be regarded as completely cutting off Chu Yurou's heart of hope. Her good makeup was wet with tears, leaving only hatred and pain: "Mo Beiyu, I hope you will not regret it in the future."

Chu Yurou said softly, her tears kept dripping down her skirt like drops of water, but her eyes were no longer full of obsession and admiration as before.

The bruised hatred spread from her fingertips to her whole body, not only towards Mo Beiyu, but also Chu Qinglan.

The emperor dispelled her dignity as a princess, and the man in front of her broke the last trace of her pride.

She is not as good as Chu Qinglan, not as good as that mountain village woman!
Not as good as a woman whose etiquette is not as good as her!
This kind of insult is obviously more embarrassing than Mo Beiyu's rejection of her marriage.

Mo Beiyu didn't say anything more, but just said before leaving: "I believe Princess Yongping is a smart person, and she won't do anything harmful to herself."

Chu Yurou understood that he was threatening herself, so don't think about attacking Chu Qinglan.

It's ridiculous, she only saw the friendship between the two today.

Obviously she was the one who came to Mo Beiyu's side first, but at some point, the other party already had a deep affection for that person.

"Of course I understand." Chu Yurou murmured in a low voice, clenching her fists.

The two of them didn't get along for a long time. Concubine Shu looked at Mo Beiyu's indifferent expression, and Ruyan next to him stumbled and brought him new tea.

Mo Beiyu didn't touch her, but asked, "Is there anything else that Concubine Shu can do?"

Thinking of seeing her daughter's sad appearance just now, she became very angry.

But now she can only take a sip of tea, hinting: "Zuoxiang, Yurou grew up in the palace and is familiar with palace etiquette. She also knows how to be a gentle and virtuous wife."

She raised her chin and said proudly: "I once said that if anyone can marry my daughter, I will definitely prepare a generous dowry, and I will never let my daughter fall to the disadvantage of others."

"Like someone else's eldest daughter, enjoy the dignity."

Seeing that Mo Beiyu was unmoved, Concubine Shu lowered her eyelashes: "I know what you worry about now is the prince next to the empress, but if you are willing to marry Yurou, these are not problems."

Hearing what Concubine Shu meant, Mo Beiyu suddenly raised his head, but his eyes were vigilant.

"I also hope that Concubine Shu Gui will be content and don't do stupid things." Upon hearing this, Concubine Shu knew that the other party was determined to go to the queen's camp.

It's useless to talk too much, Concubine Shu frowned coldly: "Over there, Prime Minister Zuo please ask for blessings." After saying that, she left with a flick of her sleeves.

The maid next to her seemed to cough twice because of the roar. Although Mo Beiyu was sensitive, he still didn't move away.

The maid hurriedly knelt on the ground, begging for mercy repeatedly.

It's just... Concubine Shu has already been annoyed today, and Mo Beiyu has no intention of staying here any longer, so he doesn't care about it.

However, Concubine Shu, who had already left, quietly appeared at the moment Mo Beiyu walked out of the palace gate. Seeing the panicked maid kneeling on the ground, she smiled slightly: "Okay, you don't need to panic, go and receive the reward."

The palace lady didn't know what she did right, but her body couldn't hold on anymore, so she had to resign.

"Tell those people outside the palace that you can start preparing."

Concubine Shu fiddled with her fingertips triumphantly: "Since you don't like them, then report to the Hades."

"Be optimistic about the princess recently, don't let her go out."
